You’re speaking to me, Anna! Have had things bouncing around my brain for years but fear of not being interesting enough, qualified or even relevant kept me for even taking the first step (or word I should say 😂)
I like your “out there/right here” definitely going to start pushing through and take my advice I’m always giving to others!
It’s so much easier to give other people advice than it is to take the same advice on board for ourselves. I hope I’ve given you the little shove you needed 🙃
Super empowering, Anna! I feel, particularly as women, we doubt ourselves and want to be *absolutely certain* we can fulfil something to 100% before we start, but that just isn't realistic. Also love the Out There / Right Here visual - going to take that one with me.
Absolutely spot on. Matches what I have leaned through blogging and TikTok-ing.
So many of us want a more glamorous path than this, but the magic is that it is not glamorous and anyone can do it. No guarantees about outcomes, but the unexpected, unpredictable, unquantifiable benefits are the best part.
This is such a great message. I've talked to a few people who haven't started writing online because they think they're either uninteresting or have nothing valuable to say. They should read this!
PS - ahh didn't realize you took Write of Passage! I was in the last cohort.
I've felt and feel the same way about putting myself out there. No real social media presence besides LinkedIn (if that qualifies). Of course, I also don't have a large audience or following as a result. Building from scratch here on Sunstack and hoping something clicks.

Absolutely! Turning that self doubt into FOMO for myself, productive gaslighting I guess 😂
Thank you!

We do doubt ourselves don't we! I don't know if that ever fully goes away? But it's about pushing through, and quietening it over time.
Really good advice, thank you for sharing it.
Many people are afraid of failure, false hope or disappointment; so they never try anything new.
But in the end, not trying is just guaranteed failure.
Preach!
haha this picture is of Cait! https://www.instagram.com/p/C7C9X5TOfAc/
Omg!! I must credit her!
I only know because I’m suffering from whatever she’s depicting in the photo - being chronically online! 😂
😂😂😂😂

You’re welcome! It’s super helpful when you’re stuck for ideas.

I did! It was so awesome, such a shame it’s no longer running 😞
Ugh, I know :(
Well done, Anna!
😘
Shoutout out to this immaculate image.
Isn’t she just!
The shiny dime concept is so useful! Will definitely be using that
SUCH a good one. I pass every single piece of writing through my shiny dime lens.
Hello
I've felt and feel the same way about putting myself out there. No real social media presence besides LinkedIn (if that qualifies). Of course, I also don't have a large audience or following as a result. Building from scratch here on Sunstack and hoping something clicks.
Thank you for sharing!
Building from scratch is exciting! The only way is up 🔥
true, thanks!
